Now That's A Wrap!

These lovely gifts would make anyone's day brighter.

In addition to leading the marketing and creative direction for the brand, I styled these presents for the "Remake Christmas: Make it with Tape" holiday shoot (click here for our YouTube channel) for Platypus Designer Duct Tape.

You can create your own handmade packages too. Here's how:

~ Find modern + colorful gift wrap. These are from Paper Source in Palo Alto / San Francisco (you can also order it online).

~ Select a fun gift topper. These sorgeous handmade lollipops are from The Candy Store in San Francisco.

~ Make various styles of bows + then wrap with wide ribbon, crafted out of assorted Platypus Designer Duct Tape, of course!

My choices included:


I also gussied up the packages even further with some pretty French ribbon generously donated by Rob's mom, Louise Jordan. She was the "Production Assistant" on our holiday film shoot - and pretty much the best PA ever!

Now see, who can resist?

(Not me. I basically pulled an all-nighter at the Fortis Design warehouse in Raleigh, NC to make sure the film set and all of the styling was very "Martha." Oh, the things a girl will do in the name of Designer Duct Tape....It's not just for repair anymore.)
